The #Holocaust was the industrialised genocide of millions.
Learning lessons about what led to it is absolutely appropriate.
Using it as a f***ing METAPHOR for family planning, the treatment of idiot anti-vaxxers, or how we talk about carbon dioxide, is stupid and disgraceful.

Here we have a combination.

Tony here is comparing efforts to dry up funding to a fake news site to Hitler's control of the mediaand implicating an anti-antisemite while he's at it.

@simon_schama has alerted me to a trend of Brexiteers calling the EU "The Fourth Reich". A vile use of Holocaust as metaphor. https://twitter.com/simon_schama/status/1159009081442492417?s=19
I can't read the article but I gather it's about safe spaces which we can talk about separately but definitely doesn't deserve a #Holocaust metaphor and therefore must be added to the gallery of shame here.
Ongoing thread about Holocaust as metaphor; must add a few examples of "Brexit Is Like Nazi Germany", although in this case it's even madder because they aren't using it as a metaphor, they are suggesting all leave voters are actually proto Nazis. (I voted remain.)

Ongoing thread about #Holocaust as #metaphor. The Holocaust is not there to provide convenient visuals for demonising political opponents. https://twitter.com/forwardnotback/status/1196858342116855809
We have reached a new and awful low in the Holocaust As Metaphor series.
I know I said yesterday that it was a new low but this is a new new low in Holocaust as Metaphor series. https://twitter.com/Daniel_Sugarman/status/1202906783024648194?s=19
Holocaust as metaphor, ongoing thread. I realise there is rising and violent antisemitism, nonetheless it is not at state level, nor does it hold a candle to pre-Holocaust or Holocaust levels, in my opinion this is inappropriate and diminishes the enormity of the #Holocaust.

Holocaust as metaphor, ongoing, never-ending thread. H/T @jh_swanson.
The story behind this is darker than simply Holocaust As Metaphor, but I want to add it to the thread because the some comments imply that UNESCO are like Nazis because they removed the heritage status from the parade over #antisemitism. https://twitter.com/RaphaelAhren/status/1231573224737165314?s=19
#Holocaust as metaphor, ongoing thread. This is just disgusting.
